42 Amazingly Free Things That Will Make You Smile

“The best things in life are free” is an oft-quote term, but is it true? We certainly think so, especially if you consider the 42 amazingly simple, beautiful, and absolutely free things below. Each one of them will definitely bring a smile to your face and those around you. After all, what’s better than improving your day and making someone else’s day while you’re at it? Not much! The best part is, they won’t cost you a dime.

1. Calling up an old friend. You know you’ve been meaning to, and they’d love to hear from you.

2. Finally going for that run you’ve been promising yourself. It’s going to feel so good afterward, even if the process is a little painful.

3. Hand-writing a note to someone you love. Snail mail is a dying art, and they’ll love receiving it!

4. Making cookies from ingredients you already have in the pantry. It’s fun to get creative. Why not throw a few extra spices in there?

5. Finally hanging up those pictures in your house. It always makes me happy to cross something off the “to do” list.

6. Reading a good book. Because life’s too short not to.

7. Hugging your kids. They won’t be kids forever, and once they turn into teenagers, they might not be the hugging type.

8. Finding a pen in the house that actually works well. And perhaps throwing out the ones that don’t.

9. Taking your dog on a walk. They deserve your love and attention and will be exhausted afterward!

10. Helping someone less fortunate than you. We’re so much luckier than we realize.
